Published 3 years, 3 months ago
Description
Kurt is a legend in the eComm space and hosts one of the most popular podcasts in our industry.
His show, The Unofficial Shopify Podcast, just crossed the 2 million downloads milestone.
Kurt and his company are all about one thing - helping Shopify store owners make more money. And the best way to do that is by split-testing everything.
An important first step of split testing is questioning your assumptions. (We all know what happens when we assume.)
Here are a few recent tests Kurt and company have run. We discuss the results on the show...yes, that's a teaser. Listen to find out what test won!
- Does free shipping always result in better performance (and is it even worth testing)?
- Should I put a slider on my home page?
- What about hero images and banners on my category pages?
- Do add-to-cart buttons on your collections pages help or hurt conversions?
- What about stuffy old early 2000s breadcrumbs - are they helpful or not?
- Plus, favorite tools, tips, and tricks that Kurt uses often.
